Dear Forum
I've got a problem with J crashing with wdooo, which I've
been discussing privately with Bill Lam. Privately because
my example involved private data.
We seem to have discovered where the trouble lies or at
least where it starts, and in a public area, so it can be
shared.
I tried the verb "test" in ~addons/tables/wdooo/oocalc.ijs.
Using debug, I see that it fails at the line
olemethod__p base ; 'createInstance' ; 'com.sun.star.frame.Desktop'
(Actually, olemethod attempts to call oleinvoke; the error appears
to occur with '' (m oleinvoke) y )
Executing this line throws an exception under Windows 8.1
with the message
jqt.exe has stopped working etc
While I'm running Apache Open Office 4.1.1 in Windows 8.1 on a
64 bit machine, Bill has libreoffice 4.3.3 in windows xp in
32 bits, where oocalc's test works ok, so we're at an impasse.
Is anyone else who's got an Open Office + 64-bit Windows 8.1
setup willing to try the oocalc test?
I recall trying out libreoffice two or three years ago and then
finding Open Office to be more stable - but perhaps things have
improved.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
